This afternoon, we have been exploring the process of osmosis so the children can understand ho the nutrients from our food are absorbed into the blood stream. This was a tricky concept to understand but we were resilient and asked for further diagrams or explanations when we needed clarity.
Yesterday morning Year 5 pupils were working hard on their written methods. They were extremely focussed throughout my short visit and impressed me when checking their work to ensure it was accurate.
If you would like to order uniform with the school logo on and require this before we finish on Thursday 21st July, Please can you order by Friday 1st July via the School Shop https://carcroftschool.co.uk/shop/
As part of our Summer Term expedition, the KS1 children are visiting the Beamish Museum in Durham.
The visit will be a full day where the children will have the opportunity to see what school was like in the past. Children will also have the opportunity to discover the games of the playground and take part in an infant lesson in the kindergarten of a Victorian school. Beamish also presents a unique insight into the living and working experiences of life in the Great North offering unrivalled learning opportunities.
Children will need to arrive at school by 7:45am
The coach will need to leave promptly at approximately 8:00am
Please ensure that children are wearing their RED Carcroft school uniform and sensible shoes (there will be a lot of walking !) The weather is also forecast to be quite hot, so children may want to have suncream applied.
Children will also need to bring a water bottle and a rucksack to carry their school-packed lunch in.
The children will be provided with a packed lunch from school and a small snack for the journey. Children do not need to bring any money, sweets or snacks.
Happy Friday – here’s a selection of beautiful work from across the XP Trust this week!
